Tuned 2020 Audi RS6 Avant Has More Power Than The Original Bugatti Veyron 16.4!

The Audi RS6 Avant isn’t a slouch as it features a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine pumping out 592 hp (441 kW / 600 PS) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque.

Those are some impressive numbers, but Wheelsandmore has done the unthinkable and given the wagon more power than the original Bugatti Veyron 16.4 that developed 987 hp (1,000 PS) when it was first introduced in the mid-2000s.

However, the company’s tuning program starts out far more modest. The Stage 1 package costs €2,100 ($2,275 / £1,833) and includes “classic” software optimizations. They enable the engine to produce 700 hp (522 kW / 710 PS) and 678 lb-ft (920 Nm) of torque.

Moving up from there, the €7,688 ($8,331 / £6,712) Stage 2 package adds a Capristo sports exhaust system which “replaces the front and middle silencers for flow-optimized and acoustically relevant reasons.” Thanks to this addition, the output climbs to 715 hp (533 kW / 725 PS) and 686 lb-ft (930 Nm) of torque.

The mid-level Stage 3 package costs €12,521 ($13,567 / £10,935) and it includes modified intake manifolds as well as the installation of a new air duct and filter housing. This bumps the output to 775 hp (578 kW / 786 PS) and 782 lb-ft (1060 Nm).

Things get more serious from there as the Stage 4 package adds revised turbochargers with bigger inputs, larger turbine shafts, a modified compressor unit and reinforced axial bearings. This package costs €33,529 ($36,342 / £29,293), but it enables the wagon to produce an insane 952 hp (710 kW / 965 PS) and 922 lb-ft (1,250 Nm) of torque.

Finally, we arrive at the Stage 5 package which sees power sucking components removed and replaced by empty pipes. The company says this includes catalysts, particulate filters and silencers.

While you probably won’t get approving looks from environmentalists, the changes enable the engine to produce 996 hp (743 kW / 1010 PS) and 922 lb-ft (1,250 Nm) of torque. The torque rating is the same as the Bugatti Veyron, but the Audi has an additional 9 hp (7 kW / 9 PS). Those are monstrous figures, but the package costs €41,932 ($45,441 / £33,804).

Besides the aforementioned packages, customers can also order lowering springs, a coilover kit and an assortment of 22-inch wheels.
